Yangpu Creates Scientist Community to Meet Core Housing Needs of Top Talents July 23,2024

This year marks the fifth anniversary of the concept of people's city. Yangpu is exploring new practices of the people's city and striving to create a talent belt. Now, the talent belt of Yangpu stands as a model in Shanghai's "One City, Three Zones, One Belt" strategy for top talents. It has brought together 74 academicians and a multitude of top talents from abroad. A host of influential talents, well-aligned with industry trends, are increasingly seeking premium housing options in the Yangpu Riverside's international innovation belt.

The scientist community is deeply committed to the concept of people's city recognizing that science and technology as the primary productive forces, talents as the primary resource and innovation as the primary driving force. It upholds the development principles of "unbounded innovation and enjoyment, ecological symbiosis and a homely welcome for talents", and actively pursues an innovation-driven development strategy to enhance the regional innovation ecosystem, leveraging top talents to promote high-quality development and create a new engine for economic and social development.

Talent Services, Prime Location

Focused on serving members of the two academies, chief scientists and other strategic talents, the scientist community also extends its reach to high-level professionals in key sectors and the new online economy, aiming to build a talent hub. Situated in the southern waterfront area of Yangpu Riverside, next to Subway Line 18, the project features a modern L-shaped structure with 2 basement levels and 16 above-ground floors, adorned with a stylish facade and a garden terrace.

Spanning an area of 5,867 square meters, the project boasts a total floor area of approximately 22,000 square meters, with the above-ground portion measuring about 13,800 square meters. This includes around 12,000 square meters dedicated to rental housing, comprising 286 units, and a public supporting area of 1,430 square meters. The underground area covers about 8,500 square meters, providing over 150 parking spots.

Diverse Layouts, Fully Furnished and Equipped

The project presents a diverse range of housing types, all fully furnished for immediate occupancy. The predominant layout is the single-bedroom apartment, complemented by various other layouts such as one-bedroom with a living room, three-bedroom with one or two living rooms, and even a spacious five-bedroom with two living rooms, catering to the diverse living needs of talents at all levels.

Additionally, the project is equipped with service facilities tailored to the needs of top talents, embracing a management philosophy that emphasizes diversity, inclusiveness, shared development and targeted services. It offers a multifunctional living environment that integrates "science, technology, economy and life" for talents of all ages in the fields of scientific innovation and research.

In the future, scientists living in this community can engage in conversations and discussions at the "Talent Hub" and "Talent Lounge"; they can enrich their knowledge and stay updated with the latest advancements in their fields at the "Leisure Book Bar" and "Art Gallery"; they can enjoy a healthy lifestyle and let their imaginations run wild at the "Fitness Center" and "Inspiration Garden"; and they can gaze over the riverside and look to the future from the "Borderless Terrace". Besides, the project features a "Multi-purpose Hall" and "Knowledge and Action Auditorium" facilitating meetings, lectures, salons and other activities.

At present, the talent belt of Yangpu is becoming increasingly luminous. The Shanghai Institute of Mathematics and Interdisciplinary Research, led by Shing-Tung Yau, and the CUHK InnoPort, among others, have taken root here. Brand initiatives like the "3310" Overseas Talent Attraction Program and the Shanghai Startups Competition have successfully drawn top talents to Yangpu...Yangpu is building a talent development mechanism that aligns with global standards, accelerating the reform of talent evaluation, and enhancing talent evaluation and incentive mechanisms driven by market needs, all aimed at elevating the living quality and fostering a more vibrant innovation atmosphere in the talent housing project.

The establishment of the scientist community is an effective move and an innovative endeavor for Yangpu to foster strategic talent forces, further promoting the spirit of scientists and advancing high-standard innovation. This community transcends the physical barriers of talent resources, leveraging the synergistic effects of technological talents to catalyze the emergence of new quality productive forces. An enhanced quality of life and a more dynamic community environment will connect more leading scientists, academicians and experts, creating a symbiotic ecosystem of information sharing, knowledge learning and collaborative motivation among talents, propelling Yangpu towards an integrated system where technology, capital, talents and other innovation elements are intermingled and interdependent.
